so i was making a s/s on Iris and i wonder if s/s hybrids still do well at this cap?
If so what kind of hybrids?1:5 , 1:8-1:7.
Or stay Pure int?
I'm looking for a s/s build to pvp 1v1.

Ty in advance sly.

if u wanna go hybrid u should choice 1:8 so ur dmg won't decrease too much...
Mana shield will make ur stay alive good enough so don't lower ur dmg

Well... pure Ints are my fav choice coz the dmg is awesome and ya they work at this cap really good

1:5 Fire/light/bicheon.

how would 1:8 s/s do with 90 fire/bicheon 60/cold/light?
imo, i think it needs to be a bit heavier, maybe 15 or so lvls of str or even 20?

I suppose you are going hybrid for extra HP? If that's so, then I must tell you that in my opinion a pure int s/s already has a good survivability. It doesn't need extra HP. If you were going with a spear or bow, then I'd suggest you to go hybrid, as their defense is low and the extra HP would really come in handy. If you still think that a pure int s/s could use some extra HP (which I disagree) you could go with 15 points in STR. That way you won't be losing much damage. Notice: as a s/s your damage is already low if compared to a spear. If you go hybrid that difference will increase.

I agree completely

I have the same problem.
1:5 is gonna be 85% mag naked right? Will my damage be too low?
Or should I just stick to 1:8 which is about 89~90% mag balance? This one seems much better to me.
Can't really decide right now lol.

Yes, pure int s/s has good survivability in snow. Outside of snow, they're a fragile as a bridge made of toothpicks, unless they're all decked out in suns. Hybrid s/s is good; decent damage, decent hp to tank out of snow. As for the argument that s/s damage is already lower than spear, your damage can be made up for slightly from the statuses from bicheon: impotent, bleed, and division.

As for what build, I'd say anything 87%+ in the magical balance naked would be good.

hybrid or pure int, ur life still hangs around having snow shield or if u can get sun gears lol

so choose pure int

I also have a little question. I'm gonna make a 1:8 hybrid ss with these masteries. 90 fire/90 bicheon and I don't know whether I should take 78 ice/42 lightning or 72ice/48 lightning. Which would be a better benefit for my build?

Go with 78ice/42 light.

You'll need the extra def Ice gives you seeing as how you'll be a heavy int hybrid.
